Just your average, "vanilla" vanilla

Like the name and branding suggests, this is just a vanilla scent, nothing more, nothing less. Unfortunately I find the start to be unpleasantly artificial, like those alcohol-based vanilla extracts people use for baking or a not-so-great vanilla syrup. Very sugary-sweet. Later in the drydown it gains a little warmth and creaminess, which makes it much more enjoyable.
I believe that that there might be some florals in this, like the notes list says, but I absolutely don't get any spices.
As a whole, this feels bright, girly and kind of tropical. It's by no means a deep, dark vanilla, but I didn't expect that anyways.
The bright yellow of the bottle design fits the scent well.

One question I often ask myself while sampling and reviewing a fragrance is: What does this bring to the table that others don't? In Solinotes Vanille's case, there is not much. I'm sure it's fine if you really like bright, sugary vanilla and are on a budget, or if you're just starting out and need a vanilla for layering, but if you already have a bigger collection with plenty of vanilla fragrances, I see no reason to add this one.

Maturation of the juice makes a difference

My first time trying this, I used a tester bottle in a store that clearly had this bottle out for a while. Based on the older inventory of the store, and the fact that they don't get a lot of shoppers, I'm guessing the bottle had been out for over a year.

The juice had darkened a bit, as some vanilla-based juices often do. So my initial experience was with a bottle that had time to sit and mature, rather than a new one fresh out of a box.

During that initial testing, I was delighted. I got a vanilla that was pure, but sweetened and made fluffy - like vanilla extract, with a hint of cakey goodness. It was the same feel throughout wearing, and I felt like I'd found my "holy grail" vanilla.

Fast forward to today: I opened a fresh bottle of Vanille Eau de Parfum at home. I'm realizing that with a fresh bottle, there seems to be a bit more of a "sugary" feel to the vanilla.

I still get the whiffs of fluffy, cakey goodness in the background like before - slightly buttery, baked goods/cake. But the first thing that stands out when sniffing, is a slightly-synthetic sugar component (a la Pink Sugar Eau de Toilette ); almost candy-like sugar.

Because of this, it comes across more "cheerful", youthful, and playful than the older bottle's juice did. In its current state, it isn't the "holy grail" vanilla I initially thought it was - but it's not bad, either.

I'm hoping that if I give it time, it will mature back to that richer, more "pure" vanilla that I first fell in love with - and will update this review, if things change.

Like a fairy dust covered hug

Yesterday my cuties arrived from Solinotes, including this one.
A friend recommended it to me and I was happy when I found a site where it was available, delivered to Germany and was accessible for me and what can I say?
I am in love!!! This vanilla for me goes in the direction of bourbon vanilla by les senteurs gourmandes, which I really adore, and vanilla extreme by Csp, although this scent here is a better version of extreme vanilla for me. All three of them have something in common for me.
Here in this vanilla, I smell something that reminds me of Yves Rocher lipsticks, and I love it. I've always thought that smell was great. Of all three vanillas, this one is the most youthful and the youngest sister, but only in character and not in all its capabilities.
It's cheerfully sweet, lighthearted, and a bit squeaky, but in the most endearing way imaginable and yet doesn't come off as overbearing.
Choco Musk also has a certain kinship to all these scents for me and accordingly I imagine it great with that vanilla.
I love the way it embraces me and how with every move I make, a hint of that happy, playful sweetness rises to my nose, letting you know that everything is going to be okay.
If this scent had a surface, it would be made of fairy dust.
It's declared unisex, but to my sensibilities it smells thoroughly feminine, almost girly :)
I love vanilla and especially this kind of vanilla, but especially this winter I especially like to reach for it to sweeten those slightly different times :)
